I am trying to add Uber mode to my map, so i copied the RYBc_con.lua and renamed it to RYBc_uber.lua, then I changed the unit count inside the lua after adding the line; SetUberMode(1); then I added the these lines to my addme

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "RYB%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c = 1,mode_uber_c = 1,}
mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)
mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

-- associate this mission name with the current downloadable content directory
-- (this tells the engine which maps are downloaded, so you need to include all new mission lua's here)
-- first arg: mapluafile from above
-- second arg: mission script name
-- third arg: level memory modifier. the arg to LuaScript.cpp: DEFAULT_MODEL_MEMORY_PLUS(x)

AddDownloadableContent("RYB","RYBc_con",4)
AddDownloadableContent("RYB","RYBc_uber",4)

I then munged my common, opened up bf2 and the Uber mode was there, however when I try to play it I get a FATAL error
Could not open MISSION\RYBc_uber.lvl

I tried to add this without any knowlege of how to add modes , so I am not too surprised it didnt work.
Can someone tell me what step I missed. Thanks in advance.

well you seemed to have been succesfull since you can choose ubermode in the menu
atleast as far as i know fatal crashes arent caused by the addme.lua

Did you edit mission.req and add a req for the lua? Should find them in data_abc\Common

I edited the mission.req(forgot to mention), but did not add a req for the new lua. please elaborate. thanks in advance.

In the data_***\Common\mission folder, that's where the REQ for your LUA should go. Look at the other REQs in the same folder to see how your LUA's REQ should be set up.

thanks, ive got uber mode, and 2-flag up and running.

new question, remember the three part mod, Rebel Ops (Aquilaris: Deep Sea,The Big "L", and Bakura: Rogue Assault), ok lets face it tthis is the best mod ever, that Maveritchell made. you all know it, love it cherish it... ok enough sucking up to Mav
Mav, added The Dark Time to all three of his maps, ( and KOTOR), I remember hearing about a tutorial
on how to add the Dark Times to your map, but have never seen it anywhere.
if someone could enlighten me, it would be easier if Maveritchell told me himself, but hes a busy guy so if anyone else knoes about this please spill.
ps, if Maveritchell doesnt want anyone to know how or whatever, thats fine, i wiil apologize, for asking.
Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Everyone has to be a least a semi-noob at one point. BTW you can only have 3 smilies per post.

Yeah, but I feel like because I started late evrone will think I'm an idiot, when the main reason i haven't been doing this for years is because I only just got a cpu with just enough power to play BF2.
Hope I can prove my worth eventually ( if I only would stop making stupid mistakes).

You know what helps? Turn off shadows! They take up a lot of the cpu power for something nobody cares about.

Shadows: off
Texture quality: low
lighting quality: low
light bloom: off
you get the idea, my cpu still lags sometimes.
